If you’re like us, you’re always seeking a shortcut to fabulous and the appeal of the multi-benefit Complexion Correction (CC) Cream is high. However, we understand that when it comes to special occasions or those times our skin just isn’t behaving, anything less than bullet-proof foundation hasn’t been able to deliver the full coverage we want. Until now…
With Ultraceuticals Ultra CC Cream Mineral Tint SPF 30 and Ultra CC Powder – Pure Mineral Tint, we can get the skin-saving benefits and all-in-one ease of a CC Cream and the full coverage of a foundation in just three steps.
Follow our cheat’s guide to a flawless complexion on the run:
STEP ONE: After cleansing, apply the Ultra CC Cream Mineral Tint SPF 30 directly on to the skin. Unless you have very dry skin, there is no need to apply moisturiser or an SPF underneath — the product contains Ultraceuticals B2 Hydrating Technology which provides long-lasting hydration, protects with everyday UVA and UVB SPF 30 Broad Spectrum, and prevents premature skin ageing with potent antioxidant peptides.
On application, be sure to take the time to massage the product in to the skin to ensure a flawless finish. The product will perfect and conceal with a buildable demi-matte coverage and provides a brightening complex.
STEP TWO: If it’s a flawless finish you’re seeking, you have an oily skin type that requires a little extra mattifying assistance, or you suffer from redness the Ultra CC Powder – Pure Mineral Tint is your best second step to correct and perfect.
To apply, simply buff this triple-milled pure mineral powder onto the skin in circular motions, applying in light layers until the desired coverage is achieved. One of the things we love most about this product is its buildable quality — it gives you complete control over the coverage level you desire so you can tone it down during the day and amp it up for special occasions without needing to invest in an additional product.
Rescu. Recommends: Ultraceuticals Kabuki Brush is specifically designed for use with the Ultra CC Powder. This perfectly engineered brush makes buffing easy and will help to ensure you have full coverage without any obvious make-up lines.
STEP THREE: Sometimes a bronzer can be a little too, well, bronze. But going without means there’s no opportunity to contour. The solution? Ultraceuticals CC Powder – Pure Mineral Tint in Shade 5.
Makeup Artist Michael Brown advises, “’Any powder that may be darker than your skin tone can be a great lift of colour when used like a bronzer, but also an easy way to add some contour and shape to the face. Apply the darker powder under any bone, in the hollow area to recede the area to sharpen up and re-structure the area. This is great for under cheek bones to lift them and also for the eye socket where puffiness may be present – anywhere you want to hide, a deeper, more matte shade will do just that”
Rescu. Recommends: To finish, lightly spray the Ultra Balancing Skin Mist after application. This will set the powder and ensure long lasting hydration.
